Arsenal make Atletico angry

Atletico train at the Emirates in preparation for their UEFA Champions League match.

The incident occurred on the evening of October 20, when Atletico players arrived for training to prepare for the match against Arsenal in the Champions League qualifying round. According to Marca , the Spanish team discovered that there was no hot water in the dressing room area as soon as they arrived at Emirates. Despite reporting the problem to stadium staff, the situation was not resolved.

Atletico players were forced to leave the pitch without being able to shower after training – something that was seen as disrespectful and affected the team's preparation. "The players had no choice but to return to the team hotel to shower. This is not the kind of treatment you expect at this level," Marca reported.

Atletico's players and coaching staff are said to be "extremely angry and outraged" by the incident, with some Atletico key players feeling disrespected by having to deal with such poor facilities at a stadium of the calibre of the Emirates.

Atletico are said to have quickly sent an official complaint to UEFA, asking the body to investigate and handle the incident. The team believes that the incident not only caused inconvenience but also violated UEFA's organizational standards.

Atletico Madrid are in London to prepare for their Champions League qualifying round match against Arsenal in the early hours of October 22. The training session is an opportunity for the team to get used to the pitch and playing conditions. However, the hot water problem has disrupted the plan, causing further frustration for the Spanish team.
